On the Refunds Manager blog, we’ve already talked about how Amazon Sellers can improve SEO, but what about CRO?
For those of you not familiar with that bit of marketing lingo, it stands for Conversion Rate Optimization and it refers to the steps you can take to improve conversions (increase purchases) on your product pages.

Increasing your conversion rates on your Amazon products won’t just make you more money in the short term, it will also increase your chances of winning the Buy Box–because Amazon wants to show customers the products that sell–and so will increase your profit in the long term too.
